Doesn't look too manueverable.... a missed judgment on clearing that bridge or rock would be an abrupt stop. (Where are the registration numbers on those things?) :lol:

I think a dinner of beans and greens the night before might be in order, in the event emergency thrust is required.

I believe that "windshear" and the quality of stitching would be my major concerns.....It reminds me of a "flying squirrel" :roll: [/img]

There a lot of things I would never do but I sure like watching the videos. Flying certified airplanes is good enough for me.
